Aaron Blair scored twice—once before and once after halftime—sealing the win for Eastleigh, with Dan Ellison’s late header offering only a consolation for Yeovil. Eastleigh started aggressively, nearly scoring within the first minute after Jed Ward misjudged a clearance. However, Ward quickly recovered and made several crucial saves, denying attempts by Blair, Jayden Moore, Jake Vokins, and Temi Eweka during the dominant spell by the home side.https://somersetdaily.co.uk/yeovil-town-fall-to-eastleigh-but-secure-national-league-survival/Mon, 06 Apr 2026 18:14:29 +0000https://somersetdaily.co.uk/yeovil-town-fall-to-eastleigh-but-secure-national-league-survival/Aaron Blair’s brace propelled Eastleigh to a crucial 2-1 victory over Yeovil Town, bringing the Spitfires significantly closer to safety in the Enterprise National League. Blair, Eastleigh’s top scorer, extended his season tally to 17 goals, helping end a five-match winless streak. With three games left, Eastleigh now sit seven points clear of the relegation zone, firmly cementing their chance of survival. Despite Yeovil goalkeeper Jed Ward’s impressive performance — denying Blair three times as well as blocking a shot from Jake Vokins — Eastleigh broke through just after half an hour.
